Mohsen Azimi

I'm a father, and that's what I'm proudest of. I live in Berlin.

I'm a software engineer currently working on Proofline.sh, which reviews code against production. I'm enthusiastic about open source and about fostering globally distributed, async teams.

Some things about me:

• Passionate about open source and quality software
• Believe in the power of simplicity: making complex systems easy to understand is an art
• Over 15 years of experience in tech: co-founded a small IT firm in Tehran, then worked at Barnes & Noble, StumbleUpon, Lyft, Apigee/Google, Airbnb (Staff Software Engineer), and ElevenLabs
• Core team member of the OpenAPI specification and toolchain; built Swagger Editor and helped the OpenAPI ecosystem thrive
• Advocate for a collaborative culture, with an emphasis on mentorship and professional growth
• Inventor on a patent for "Simulated Testing of APIs"

What I love outside work:

• Avid traveler and hiker
• Community builder, focused on inclusivity and belonging
• Electronic music enthusiast, both as a listener and creator
• Culinary explorer, introducing people to the richness of Persian culture through my cooking
